McKinley Drive from Van Buren to Hayes avenues will be closed to traffic beginning today (Thursday, Sept. 23) to allow reconstruction of the road.

A new asphalt road and selected concrete driveways will be installed following the end of this phase, which is expected to take seven to 10 days to complete.

All are encouraged to take note of this construction activity in the area and allow extra travel time as delays may occur. For safety reasons, please keep children and pets away from the construction zone.
